It was the first time in his life that Martin had travelled first class. On ships at sea he had always been in the forecastle, the steerage, or in the black depths of the coal-hold, passing coal.(这是他马丁·伊登生平第一次坐头等舱，在出海的船上他从来都是在水手舱，在驾驶室，或在锅炉房运煤。)
The first-class cabins are too expensive, second class is stifling and third is in steerage.(一等舱太贵，二等舱太闷，三等舱在近舵处。)
He was re-elected for his miraculous steerage of the country through an economic disaster.(他奇迹般地引导该国渡过了一场经济灾难，因此再度当选。)
Passenger: And then let' s see all the cabins, first class, second class, steerage, the lounge, the restaurant, the bar, and the cinema hall.(然后让我们参观一下所有的船舱，一等舱，二等舱，普通舱，休息室、餐厅、酒吧和电影院大厅。)
Passengers traveling in the steerage paid the lowest fares.(坐下等客舱的旅客付最低的票价。)
